Comparative in vitro drug testing was performed in 72 of 183 surgically removed human colorectal cancer specimens (34 primary lesions, 38 metastases). In 10 of these tumors, comparative dose-response curves were obtained. Given a greater than or equal to 70% ICF (inhibition of colony formation) as threshold for in vitro sensitivity, 5-FU was active in 16/62 specimens, and FUDR in 14/62. Significantly discordant sensitivity results were observed in 8/62 tests, 5-FU being the more active agent in 5 of these cases. These data are supported by the finding of 3 considerably differing dose-response curves in 10 additional comparative studies of human primary tumors.
